Video: Cleaning seeds
Thanks Jonna, great information. I really appreciated the closeups of the seed too.
That was a very sweet video. In addition, I enjoyed listening to the language of the lady while comparing it to my own. Great ideas!
Jonna - Thanks for showing how you clean seeds. Much more civilised than my own methods. LOL!

Lazlo, more civilised doesn't mean better. Your method might be as well or even better as mine.
The only thing I hope, is that people who are unexperienced will learn from my video.
Sharing seeds is important to keep biodiversity and keep Monsanto and cs far away from gardeners.

Echo ?
I agree with you on biodiversity. This year I learned that honeybees get the short end of the nectar stick when it comes to hybridization of flowers. Virtually anything with "double" in its name is zero help to honeybees because extra petals come from manipulating the plant's sexy bits, often rendering them sterile; and their nectarines are often too deeply obscured that the honeybees cannot reach them with their short proboscis'.
I've enough fancy types and will be focusing on increasing the number and diversity of honeybee-friendly plants while planting in the future. I feel I should do what I can to help local honeybees to have good access to pollens and nectar they need. Perhaps that is all any of us can do until science finds a defense against the virus that's been killing off the bees for years. Truth is: bees do't eat; we don't eat.
There -- you've swallowed a bullfrog now go have a great day 'cause nothing worse will happen to you all day! ;-)

As always so helpful you are. I really like your incredible collections of plants. I really enjoy all of mine that I have purchased from you. Great service and wonderful seeds.
